Lipscomb University's Landiss Lecture Series presents Robert Morgan, author of the 2000 Oprah Book Club Selection Gap Creek and distinguished Kappa Alpha Professor of English at Cornell University. Morgan has published more than twenty-five books crossing many genres, including fiction, essays, biography, poetry, as well as numerous publications in journals. All of his works have received critical acclaim and literary awards. Gap Creek, a novel centered on early Appalachia, was selected as an Oprah Book Club selection in January 2000. His latest book, Boone: A Biography, is a biography of Daniel Boone and was selected one of the best books of 2007 by critic Jonathan Yardley of Washington Post Book World. Boone also earned Morgan the 2008 Thomas Wolfe Prize, awarded by the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill to recognize contemporary writers with distinguished bodies of work.

Please note: This event will take place in the Doris Swang Chapel in the Ezell Center on the Lipscomb campus.
